Shu-Ping Chen11/09/2025My sister and I stopped by without plans to take a tour. My sister has COPD and we didn’t think a 2 1/2 hour walking tour would be possible. But the cost was much less than we expected, and as soon as we mentioned the COPD they gave us options. We ended up getting a personal tour where they drove us part way with a side-by-side and our personal guide(s) adjusted the speed to something my sister could handle. We stopped as often and as long as we needed to and ended up going the whole way. An unforgettable experience with VIP service.
And in my 27 years in Alaska they are the first company that I’ve come across that gives a discount to Alaska residents!!’read moreread less
Gabriele Murry6/15/2025Hiked the glacier with Petra and it was breathtaking. She was an amazing guide, keeping our kids state while giving us the most amazing tour and hike of the glacier. We went in ice caves and crevices, walked across the frozen river, and spent hours exploring. The glacier is beautiful and a trip our family will never forget. Thank you Petra!read moreread less
Noah Broadwater4/12/2025 - The tour was very interesting, my only feedback is the high price and the group size, it would have been nicer with a smaller group (we were around 15).read moreread less
Noémi Németh3/16/2025Absolutely amazing adventure! We had family visiting and decided to try this tour out, and I’m so glad we did. Booking was easy; we booked via text, and the company was extremely responsive and provided all the details we needed to be successful. Our group of 6 (5 adults + 1 18-month old) enjoyed ourselves and our guide, Naomi. I unfortunately forgot my coat at home, but they had coats and pants to borrow. They also have REI carriers that we took advantage of for my son, and multiple restrooms are available at the start/end of the tour.read moreread less

Craig Osborn3/16/2025 - I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for an adventure. Our guide Naomi was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot of cool facts about the glacier throughout the trek. They provided crampons to wear on our shoes and even had backpack baby carriers available to borrow. Tour guide Maguire was a huge help with teaching me how to use the baby carrier for my toddler and ensuring that she was safe. A big thank you to both of these guides and to all of the friendly staff we met throughout our experience there!read moreread less
Kaylyn McGraw2/26/2025Myself and 3 friends had the pleasure of hiking Mantanuska Glacier this afternoon with our guide Amy! Amy went above and beyond tailoring the tour to our group’s needs and her knowledge was superior!!!read moreread less
Adam Foglia10/27/2024My husband and I had family visiting and decided to stop by and do a tour on the Matanuska glacier while we were heading back home to Fairbanks from Anchorage! I’m so glad that we did because we had an amazing time! I was incredibly nervous to do this tour because we had already done so much hiking while we were down in Anchorage the day before and I am newly pregnant with a rough history of multiple miscarriages. The company was so comforting and reassuring. Our guide Amy was the best guide that we could’ve asked for. I’m so glad that she was working that day! She is a retired OB/GYN nurse and was very understanding of my situation. She held my hand through all of the rougher areas of the tour and had somebody escort my husband and I in a side by side down to the bottom of the path where the glacier began from the building and back up when we were done. I felt so loved and cared for the entire time. Our entire family enjoyed this experience! I highly recommend this company and this glacier!!read moreread less
Ciara Crosson10/22/2024We went on a tour yesterday and it was fabulous! Our guide Petra was perfect. She shared a ton of great info, was very consciencious about our group, and her love of the glacier and its natural history was apparent. I was assured when I reserved our time that my 82 year old father would be able to do the tour and he could and did and he and my mom loved it. I've heard great things about this tour from other locals for years and they were spot on. I will highly recommend this tour to others.read moreread less
Kori Marchowsky9/08/2024This was a top notch tour! Our guide, Petra, was knowledgable, experienced, and funny! We learned a great deal about glaciers and how they form, change, and how they're affected by environment. We had fun while doing it! This was not a physically challenging tour if you are in average physical health. Well worth the money!read moreread less

He went above and beyond to show us and guide us throughout the hike. Loved it and would recommend to anyone who is interested to experience this.read moreread less
Arghyadeep Pradhan5/26/2024The glaciers are beautiful, and altho the tour guide was very informative I felt she was a tad rude. She wanted to keep the group moving and it felt rushed. I felt she was biased and catered to certain people who she believed would give her a better tip. I would do the tour again with a different tour company unfortunately.read moreread less
Db34/23/2024 - We couldn't describe our experience as anything less than fantastic. During our trip to Alaska, we had the incredible opportunity to visit the Matanuska Glacier. It holds the distinction of being the largest glacier in the United States accessible by car. The prospect of witnessing this magnificent glacier firsthand filled us with excitement. This Glacier tour offered us a great service, allowing us to safely explore the glacier icy expanse. With the guidance of experts, we slowly walked into the heart of the glacier. Navigating through the icy terrain, we were surrounded by towering ice mountains, creating a breathtaking spectacle. Despite the cold, the beauty of the Matanuska Glacier was a truly unforgettable experience that we will never forget. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Alaska.read moreread less
Weeranat Wilaiwan4/23/2024Super recommend taking the tour of Matanuska glacier! We had a really great time there guided by Johnson in March! He is so nice, funny and shared a lot of knowledge and cares with us. We got so impressed that we decided to hold our wedding ceremony there. The ceremony was also a great sucess and unforgettable experience. We all so appreciated the help from the entire crew of glacier tours.read moreread less
Ren Liu4/21/2024What a once in a lifetime opportunity. One of my favorite memories of visiting Alaska. The guide Petra helped our group with all of the little tough slippery spots. She was so knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you Glacier tours for creating an everlasting memory for us!read moreread less
